FRANKLY has a big reputation and she nearly lived up to that when narrowly defeated by subsequent graded placed entrant Mazari on debut in February. She struggled in two subsequent feature events but the expensive daughter of Frankel would have strengthened during the 11 week absence and she has interestingly changed stables. She must be closely watched during her three-year old term this season.

Race 3: WINTER'S FORGE(7) Jockey: A Arries - Trainer: S Ferreira

WINTER'S FORGE finally returns to the scene of her only career triumph which came over this c & d on debut. She has suffered some hiccups along the way but the smart daughter of Western Winter had a respectable last run in mixed company over further. She is slightly out at the weights here but will definitely prefer this minimum distance and merits healthy respect.

ROYAL FUTURE has shown potential in her two decent sprints, the latest of which certainly indicated that she is desperately searching for further. She ran on again for a creditable 3rd that day and will be a huge contender over the mile today. The daughter of Mogok will benefit from a 2.5kgs apprentice allowance

Race 9: PEAPACK(13) Jockey: S Khumalo - Trainer: G Terzi

The improving PEAPACK quite surprisingly races with a pair of blinkers today despite returning to what could be his preferred distance. The chestnut certainly didn't disgrace himself when staying on for 3rd in a decent line-up over seven furlongs two weeks ago and hardly surprisingly top jockey Khumalo retains the ride
